To me, the epitome of positive masculinity is Aragorn from the Lord of the Rings movies (and also the book). Gentle, caring, not afraid to show emotion, cries, kisses his friends on the forehead, and yet a total badass, and Viggo just looks like a masculine dude. I don’t think even the most conservative Christian nationalist could argue that he’s feminine. If I had a son (who chose to identify as a man) and he turned out to be like Aragorn, I don’t think I could be a prouder parent.
